    <h1>Development - Documentation</h1>

    <p>Cygwin/X documentation is written in XML and is compiled
    against the <a href="http://www.docbook.org">DocBook</a> DTD
    (document type definition).</p>

    <p>Patches to the documentation source will be gladly
    accepted.</p>

    <p>Currently all documentation screenshots are in the PNG
    format; we cannot accept GIF graphics for the documentation.
    Read the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html">GNU
    statement regarding GIFs</a> for more information on why we
    cannot accept GIFs.</p>

    <h2>Documentation</h2>

    <p>If you just want to read the current documentation,
    see <a href="../../docs/">documentation</a>.
    </p>

    <h2>Documentation Source Code</h2>

    <p>See the Cygwin/X Contributor's Guide chapter on
    <a href="http://x.cygwin.com/docs/cg/documentation.html">documentation</a>
    for instructions on obtaining the documentation source code and building
    the documentation from that source code.</p>

    <h2>Documentation Source Code from Cygwin's setup.exe</h2>

    <p>Use Cygwin's setup.exe to install the cygwin-x-doc package
    that contains both a compiled version of the
    documentation and the documentation source code.
    This package can be found in the 'Doc' category</p>
